Just my opinion ... but I think that drum triggers (ie. samples) will ALWAYS sound better unless the recording chain / acoustic kit sound / mics / room ... etc etc is up to scratch.

What I mean is that although I PERSONALLY prefer real drums, I feel that the quickest way (and possibly cheapest way) to a kick-ass sound is with samples.

I think it is MUCH quicker to get the type of sounds that would normally require a sophisticated and expensive recording chain.

Like I said ... just my opinion.
